Hi there,
Is there any way to add a currency module to Zooper? I'm currently just using a separate widget to get GBP/JPY, but would rather everything was all in the same widget, with the ability to customise it.
Kind regards,

Hi all,
I use Zeam launcher because of its lightness, but there's unfortunately no option for adding custom shortcuts to your homescreens.
For example, when using ADW I put a shortcut directly to the alarm, without having to click on Clock > Alarm. Seems that I can't do that with Zeam.
So, I downloaded an app called Custom Shortcuts, but I must say it's quite weird. When I click on it, I have access to the most recent tasks but it seems that I need to know the URI of the activity I want to put a shortcut to, and I don't know those URI...
Could anyone help, please? Thanks!
I think Any Cut may be what you're looking for

So I was wondering if there is a way to set a variable to something, then change it dynamically based on an event. Here is an example of an end goal with what I mean. So you make a widget that shows the forecast and all items have some form of
[bo]$#TMU_ISPLAYING#=1?0:100$[/bo]
To hide if media is playing (when combined with media utilities). I would like to take this a bit further and say, if I have that same widget, a forecast widget and down in the corner is an icon, by clicking that icon(the event) it changes the value of a variable in zooper, and the widget can change based on that. Much like with the TMU_ISPLAYING, except with this, your click changes the variable and not an outside app. Does anyone know if this is possible at all, even just a very random workaround solution would be cool, I just want to be able to change a widget based on a click. Thanks in advance.

This is possible with Tasker. Zooper has a built-in Tasker plugin so you can send data from Tasker to Zooper and I have used it for the same thing you are trying to do. If you are used to work with Tasker it's really easy to setup but if you are new to Tasker, it might take you a bit to figure it out. Here is a link on how this generally works: http://www.jagwar.de/en/zooper-tasker-variables/. To get you started, you can find my task here. To use Tasker tasks from Zooper, you set them as a Module OnTap action via the Tasker shortcut action.
Hope this helps you out enough to get you going
I would like to change the widget locality for a module using a tasker scene. The idea is to click on a hotspot in the zooper widget which starts a tasker scene. From there, I pick a location. This sets a zooper variable in tasker to the new location. Up to here there's no problem. But I don't see how I can use the zooper variable to change the locality of the widget. Is there a way to do it?

No, Zooper currently doesn't support changing the location via external means
@VeryGenericUser are you trying to get a map of your current location? Directions from where you are to home or someplace else?

No. The idea was to change the location for the weather forecast. I wanted to have a Zooper weather widget for my current location by default, but still be able to manually change the location with two clicks right from my home screen, for example to set the locality to the place I'm about to travel to.
OK. Why don't you make your Tasker scene to change the parameters of an HTTP GET to something like Yahoo weather. In your scene change the city or zip code and be able to enable or disable the profile.
In Zooper hide the travel weather if you don't have it and show it if you do.
I haven't had the chance to play with scenes yet. Scraping an RSS feed for weather I know how. Have to do a bunch of variable splits.
If you want I can create the RSS scrape and then you can do what you need to do.
Let me know!

Thanks, that might be a way to do it, but it would be more elaborate. Maybe I'll get to it one day when I have more time.
I am able to place a gmail widget on my home screen, but there does not seem to be a standalone widget for exchange email accounts. Am I looking in the wrong place, or has that option been removed? If it has been removed, does anyone have suggestions for a good widget to download for the purpose of being able to readily see microsoft exchange emails on my homescreen (without having to open an app)?
Thanks.

The exchange widget seems to only be on the magazine ux side (swipe to the right).

Thanks. I wasn't for sure what that page was called, but did see that it included the exchange widget as an option. I'm just used to having all of my email and Google Voice accounts shown in one place. It will be inconvenient to have to switch between pages or to open the email app each time.
Hello,
My Sense Home Widget is not working properly. Pinned items disappear. Also, how am I suppose to add new folders (and apps) to the widget? Every time I remove something some other app automatically gets placed in there. I figured a work around with apps by creating a folder with a current item and the new item then removing the one I don't want... but that is a stupid design. I suppose I could do the same thing and recreate all the folders, but you think it would be easier... why cant I just drag them from another home screen. Anyone else having these issues?

Sense Home is designed to automatically populate with the apps that you use most in the particular location you're in. If you want to use it, then just set your locations and use your phone as you normally would in each location and the widget will learn which apps you use where and populate the widget accordingly.
If you want total control, then just place shortcuts directly on your home screens, but you won't have the location-specific feature anymore.
I understand it is meant to auto populate, but that doesn't account for pinned items disappearing or the lack of an intuitive way for manually adding items to that widget.
